What teams should design around early
Lightspeed Retail and Restaurant use different APIs
Lightspeed Retail (R-Series and X-Series) and Lightspeed Restaurant have separate APIs and product structures. Confirm which platform you use before setup.
Product structure differences across platforms
Lightspeed handles variants and product hierarchies differently than most ecommerce platforms. Careful catalog mapping prevents sync errors.
API rate limits during high-volume periods
Lightspeed API rate limits can throttle sync during busy retail periods like Black Friday. Plan buffer stock and prioritize critical SKUs.
